Hi there! The name is David DeSandro. I'm currently employed in the megalopolis of Northern Virginia. I graduated from JMU with a degree in Communication Studies. My haunts lie in Philadelphia.
History
I first started blogging in the Fall of 2004 on Blogger, primarily posting photos of weekend escapades. I've started up nemoorange.com to expand the scope of my online endeavors.
Sections
If I wrote it, it goes in the blog. For 2008, I make something artsy and post it to the new moon project. Photo sets may be found in photo. Interesting finds of the Interwebs are located in links. I like keeping track of stuff, so there's a section for new words I find, and another for all the movies I see. The latest has all the new stuff added to the site collected easily in one section.
